Last week marked an exciting milestone for ACT Medical as we embarked on a new chapter by relocating to a brand-new office space within the vibrant and eco-conscious Hope Street Yard. Situated adjacent to Mill Road, Hope Street Yard offers many advantages that align perfectly with our values and aspirations.

About Hope Street Yard

One of the standout features of Hope Street Yard is its commitment to sustainability. The site boasts net-zero carbon workspaces, which translates to an impressive annual reduction of 19.95 tonnes of CO2 emissions. To put that into perspective, it's equivalent to the positive environmental impact of planting 9,076 trees each year!

By occupying this environmentally conscious space, ACT Medical proudly contributes to a greener future. Furthermore, the buildings within the development have achieved an outstanding EPC rating of A+, solidifying their status as best-in-class when it comes to energy efficiency. These attributes not only resonate with our commitment to reducing our carbon footprint but also reflect our dedication to operating in an environmentally responsible manner.

Benefits for ACT

Firstly, it provides us with ample room to accommodate our growing team, creating a comfortable and spacious working environment for everyone. Additionally, the expanded space allows us to enhance our testing and development facilities, providing the necessary resources for innovation and progress. This signifies a significant step forward in our quest to deliver a first-in-class haemorrhage management device.

One of the key advantages of our new location is the inclusion of a dedicated meeting room that can comfortably accommodate up to 10 people. This invaluable asset enables us to host on-site updates, presentations, and discussions with our investors and suppliers, finally not all our meetings are on Zoom!

The availability of outdoor seating allows our team members to enjoy the fresh air and soak in natural sunlight. Whilst the proximity to independent cafes adds another layer of convenience, providing our team with an array of culinary options, and encouraging a healthy work-life balance.

Furthermore, our new office's strategic location in Cambridge places us at the heart of a thriving community of creative businesses, particularly in the esteemed medical devices and technology sectors. This prime positioning allows us to tap into a network of like-minded professionals, enabling collaboration, knowledge sharing, and potential partnerships.
